Abstract

This paper presents the application of dynamic programming method in the hydro-thermal coordination, which is based on finding the optimal trajectory of the use of water in reservoir storage with the limitation of initial and final storage volumes. Initial and final volumes of the reservoir present the input data in the optimization and which were obtained in short-term planning of water consumption. Also, this paper presents the modeling and the possible approximations of the inputoutput characteristic of steam and hydroelectric plants. For the purpose of hydrothermal coordination, the program was implemented using MATLAB software and its
graphical user GUI interface. The mentioned program includes hydro-thermal coordination that was made on the principle of dynamic programming using Dijkstra algorithm.
